Besitzer von Mittelerde: Schatten des Krieges dürfen sich über das mittlerweile zwölfte große Update zum Spiel freuen. Ganz besonders spannend dabei: Sämtliche Mikrotransaktionen werden aus dem Spiel entfernt. Gold kann bis zum 17. Juli 2018 noch ausgegeben und auch über Herausforderungen verdient werden, danach gehört das komplette Gold-Konzept der Vergangenheit an.
Was sich sonst noch getan hat, könnt Ihr dem Changelog entnehmen:
- Nemesis System Enhancements – Overlords can now have Bodyguards, which function the same as Warchief Bodyguards, including the ability to deploy spies.
- Online Fight Pits & Online Conquests Update – Added the ability to search by player name when engaging in Friendly Online Pit Fights and Friendly Online Conquests.
- Photo Mode Upgrades – New stickers, styles and filters inspired by the Desolation of Mordor Story Expansion.
- New Player Skin – You can now choose to appear as Baranor.
- Brutal Difficulty – Added a new “Brutal Difficulty” setting, meant to be difficult but unique in its feel. Enemies are as fast and lethal as on Gravewalker difficulty, but your damage is increased greatly, and your Might and Wrath meters fill faster to allow you to use more special moves.
- Player Stats Page Updates – Added additional entries to the Player Stats page.
- Market Update –The ability to purchase Gold within the First Party Store will be permanently removed. Players will still be able to spend Gold and receive Gold via in-game challenges up until the Market closes permanently on July 17.
